I am a PhD scholar at Ahmedabad University, India, working in electronics and computer engineering with a focus on road traffic analytics. My research uses UAV-based imagery and video data to analyse Indian road traffic, including traffic violations, defensive driving behaviour, and traffic flow characteristics in heterogeneous environments. Moving forward, I aim to extend this work to edge computing by developing application-specific deep learning models that can be efficiently deployed on resource-constrained platforms for real-time traffic analysis. A summary of my ongoing research work is found here and here.
We collected road traffic videos using UAV and annotated using DRASHTI-SUCHAK and CVAT tools to curate an Indian Vehicle Oriented-Object-Detection Dataset (with 1.3 Million Samples)- DRASHTI-HaOBB, and it is now publicly available on Zenodo: https://zenodo.org/records/18278989
